It cracks me up that Obama would hang a picture of the moment that Sonny Liston took a dive because the Black Muslims paid him to.
My Grandfather was there in the 1st row at St Doms Arena in Lewiston, Maine for that fight. He told me it was a dive. He met Sonny Liston in person while working at a nursing home that week. His job was being the handyman at the building. My Great Uncle (Pepere’s brother in law who owned the home) got him front row seats. Robert Goulet screwed up the national anthem that night. My Grandfather told me Goulet was drunk.
